On the other hand BJP's Haryana in charge, Kailash Vijayavargiya denied the allegations. "The tickets were decided by the party leadership in the presence of party president Amit Shah, & PM Narendra modi was also present so there is no possibility of tickets being bought and sold," said Kailash.
He admitted that leaders had some problems in some parts of the state, but claimed that they would be pacified within a couple of days. "We received 3,000 applications, but tickets can be given to only 90 candidates," he said.
